Documentary Convention launched by AFAC and DOX BOX

The Arab Fund For Arts and Culture (AFAC) and the Germany-based documentary organisation DOX BOX e.V. launch an international documentary convention. We are happy to announce that DOK Leipzig teams up as a partner in this initiative, next to IDFA Bertha Fund and the Sundance Institute.

The first edition of the arab.european Documentary Convention (aDC) takes place from 12 to 14 April 2018 at the Mediencampus Villa Ida in Leipzig. The programme includes workshops, debates, panels and case studies as well as rough-cut and film screenings.

The international meeting is designed to take place annually and to bring together professionals working in documentary and decision makers from the Arab region, Europe and beyond. Topics on the agenda of the first convention are ethics of co-production, documentary distribution in challenging times and Arab-region documentary heritage.

Registration for the aDC’18 in Leipzig is now open! Read more about the programme and how to register on the aDC Website.
